Ah, great, Richard! Thanks for the reminder -- a lot of good stuff there,
too, everyone!

Just as a reminder, you can find a lot of articles on game accessibility and

audio games (including project research reports) over at

http://www.audiogames.net/page.php?pagefile=articles

We're still updating links to some of the older articles on the new website.

You can still finding working links for articles of 2003 and 2004 here:

http://student-kmt.hku.nl/~audiogam/ag/articles2003.php
http://student-kmt.hku.nl/~audiogam/ag/articles.php

And for anyone able to read Dutch (or who would like to try using 
Bablefish - http://world.altavista.com/) I've recently written an article on

game accessibility for the Accessibility Foundation:

http://www.accessibility.nl/algemeen/nieuws?id=51

Greets,

Richard

Hi all,

Just got back from DiGRA, a conference for game academics/researchers.

http://www.gamesconference.org/


I did notice some SIG-relevant sessions on the program. But, sadly
did not have time to attend any of those sessions.

Perhaps someone from the SIG can scan the program and build a list of
the accessibility related papers and speakers.

http://www.gamesconference.org/digra2005/papers.php

For example:
http://www.gamesconference.org/digra2005/viewabstract.php?id=24
http://www.gamesconference.org/digra2005/viewabstract.php?id=213

(And, I do believe that most have their email listed)...

I am sure that academics involved in this area would be happy to get
involved with the SIG.

Just a suggestion :)

Jason
